Ntafufu Eco Lodge

DimitriRating, 5 stars34 months ago

Very beautiful and peaceful. Armin and Sabina were amazing and it was a privilege to be part of their world, a world of fruit trees, orchards, ducks, chickens and horses. My daughters loved participating in the feeding of the animals and collecting the eggs. We also paddled the river and explored the wild beach. There is no electricity and it became so wonderful at night with all the candles. A highly recommend a destination.

Traditional Family Rondawel

ShannonRating, 5 stars3 months ago

This place was awesome. Definitely worth the drive. Louis was very helpful, friendly, and accommodating. The facilities were unique and the surrounding area was so beautiful, the best sunset I have seen in South Africa so far. Very friendly cat and dogs on property. Awesome kitchen set up and fire place to sit with friends. Only thing to say is if there are puddles on the dirt road to the property drive slowly directly through them, and you can even get through with a regular rental car. Or you can be like me and mess up and drive on the side of the puddle and get stuck in the mud (don’t be like me lol) thanks again for the help Louis!! Definitely would stay here again.
